Lowest Unique Bid Auctions with Signals
Lowest Unique Bid Auctions with Signals 1,2, Andrea Gallice 1 Department of Economics and Statistics, University of Torino, Corso Unione Sovietica 218bis, 10134, Torino, Italy 2 Collegio Carlo Alberto, Via Real Collegio 30, 10024, Moncalieri, Italy. Abstract A lowest unique bid auction allocates a good to the agent who submits the lowest bid that is not matched by any other bid. This peculiar mechanism recently experi- enced a surge in popularity on the Internet. We study lowest unique bid auctions from a theoretical point of view and show that in equilibrium the mechanism is unproﬁtable for the seller unless there exist sizeable gains from trade. But we also show that it can become highly lucrative if some bidders are myopic. In this second case, we analyze the key role played by a number of private signals bidders receive about the current status of the bids they submitted. JEL Classiﬁcation: D44, C72. Keywords: Lowest unique bid auctions; pay-per-bid auctions; signals.

Putting Auction Theory to Work
Putting Auction Theory to Work Paul Milgrom With a Foreword by Evan Kwerel © 2003 “In Paul Milgrom's hands, auction theory has become the great culmination of game theory and economics of information. Here elegant mathematics meets practical applications and yields deep insights into the general theory of markets. Milgrom's book will be the definitive reference in auction theory for decades to come.” —Roger Myerson, W.C.Norby Professor of Economics, University of Chicago “Market design is one of the most exciting developments in contemporary economics and game theory, and who can resist a master class from one of the giants of the field?” —Alvin Roth, George Gund Professor of Economics and Business, Harvard University “Paul Milgrom has had an enormous influence on the most important recent application of auction theory for the same reason you will want to read this book – clarity of thought and expression.” —Evan Kwerel, Federal Communications Commission, from the Foreword For Robert Wilson Foreword to Putting Auction Theory to Work Paul Milgrom has had an enormous influence on the most important recent application of auction theory for the same reason you will want to read this book – clarity of thought and expression. In August 1993, President Clinton signed legislation granting the Federal Communications Commission the authority to auction spectrum licenses and requiring it to begin the first auction within a year. With no prior auction experience and a tight deadline, the normal bureaucratic behavior would have been to adopt a “tried and true” auction design. But in 1993 there was no tried and true method appropriate for the circumstances – multiple licenses with potentially highly interdependent values.

Shill Bidding in English Auctions
Shill Bidding in English Auctions Wenli Wang Zoltan´ Hidvegi´ Andrew B. Whinston Decision and Information Analysis, Goizueta Business School, Emory University, Atlanta, GA, 30322 Center for Research on Electronic Commerce, Department of MSIS, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, TX 78712 ¡ wenli [email protected] ¡ [email protected] [email protected] First version: January, 2001 Current revision: September 6, 2001 Shill bidding in English auction is the deliberate placing bids on the seller’s behalf to artificially drive up the price of his auctioned item. Shill bidding has been known to occur in auctions of high-value items like art and antiques where bidders’ valuations differ and the seller’s payoff from fraud is high. We prove that private- value English auctions with shill bidding can result in a higher expected seller profit than first and second price sealed-bid auctions. To deter shill bidding, we introduce a mechanism which makes shill bidding unprofitable. The mechanism emphasizes the role of an auctioneer who charges the seller a commission fee based on the difference between the winning bid and the seller’s reserve. Commission rates vary from market to market and are mathematically determined to guarantee the non-profitability of shill bidding. We demonstrate through examples how this mechanism works and analyze the seller’s optimal strategy. The Internet provides auctions accessible to the general pub- erature on auction theories, which currently are insufficient to lic. Anyone can easily participate in online auctions, either as guide online practices. a seller or a buyer, and the value of items sold ranges from a One of the emerging issues is shill bidding, which has become few dollars to millions.

Reverse Live Auction for Bidder
Process for Reverse Live Auction What is Reverse Live Auction? Reverse Live Auction (RLA) implemented in the Chhattisgarh State Power Companies uses Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) module of SAP (globally Known ERP). RLA provides a real-time environment which drives bottom-line results significantly by putting suppliers into direct competition with each other. Transaction type “English Auction” is used in RLA which works on principal “New Bid Must Beat Overall Best Bid”. RLA have the provision of setting up the auction with automatic extensions that is if the bid is submitted within few minutes/seconds of the auction end time. The auction end time will automatically get extended, based on the timing parameters fixed by purchaser. Automatic Extension of end time in RLA is based on below given 3 parameters defined by Purchaser and also visible to bidders once the RLA is published: • Remaining Time Trigger: This field refers to the duration of time (minutes), before which Reverse Live Auction is programmed to end, if a new bid is placed within this time duration, the RLA will be extended with specified time (Extension Period). • Extension Period: The span of time (hours or minutes) by which the system extends an RLA, if a bid is received during “Remaining Time Trigger” period. • Number of Extensions: This field depicts the maximum number of times by which an auction can be extended automatically.

Drafts Versus Auctions in the Indian Premier League
Drafts versus Auctions in the Indian Premier League Tim B. Swartz ∗ Abstract This paper examines the 2008 player auction used in the Indian Premier League (IPL). An argument is made that the auction was less than satisfactory and that future auctions be replaced by a draft where player salaries are determined by draft order. The salaries correspond to quantiles of a three-parameter lognormal distribution whose parameters are set according to team payroll constraints. The draft procedure is explored in the context of the IPL auction and in various sports including basketball, highland dance, golf, tennis, car racing and distance running. Keywords: Auctions, Drafts, Lognormal distribution, Twenty20 cricket. ∗Tim Swartz is Professor, Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science, Simon Fraser University, 8888 University Drive, Burnaby BC, Canada V5A1S6.

He also thanks the Associate Editor and an anonymous referee for detailed comments that helped improve the manuscript. 1 1 INTRODUCTION In 2008, the Indian Premier League (IPL) was born. The 2008 IPL season involved 8 profes- sional cricket teams, all based in India. In the IPL, teams play Twenty20 cricket, the most recent version of cricket which was introduced in 2003 in England. Twenty20 diﬀers markedly from ﬁrst class and one-day cricket in that matches are completed in roughly 3.5 hours, a du- ration more in keeping with many professional team sports. As a form of limited overs cricket, Twenty20 cricket has two innings, each consisting of 10 wickets and 20 overs.

Auction Theory
Auction Theory Jonathan Levin October 2004 Our next topic is auctions. Our objective will be to cover a few of the main ideas and highlights. Auction theory can be approached from different angles – from the perspective of game theory (auctions are bayesian games of incomplete information), contract or mechanism design theory (auctions are allocation mechanisms), market microstructure (auctions are models of price formation), as well as in the context of different applications (procure- ment, patent licensing, public finance, etc.). We’re going to take a relatively game-theoretic approach, but some of this richness should be evident. 1 The Independent Private Value (IPV) Model 1.1 A Model The basic auction environment consists of: Bidders i =1,...,n • Oneobjecttobesold • Bidder i observes a “signal” Si F ( ), with typical realization si • [s, s], and assume F is continuous.∼ · ∈ Bidders’ signals S1,...,Sn are independent. • Bidder i’s value vi(si)=si. • Given this basic set-up, specifying a set of auction rules will give rise to a game between the bidders. Before going on, observe two features of the model that turn out to be important. First, bidder i’s information (her signal) is independent of bidder j’s information. Second, bidder i’s value is independent of bidder j’s information – so bidder j’s information is private in the sense that it doesn’t affect anyone else’s valuation. 1 1.2 Vickrey (Second-Price) Auction In a Vickrey, or second price, auction, bidders are asked to submit sealed bids b1,...,bn. The bidder who submits the highest bid is awarded the object, and pays the amount of the second highest bid.

An Experimental Study of the Generalized Second Price Auction
An experimental study of the generalized second price auction. Jinsoo Bae John H. Kagel The Ohio State University The Ohio State University 6/18/2018 Abstract We experimentally investigate the Generalized Second Price (GSP) auction used to sell advertising positions in online search engines. Two contrasting click through rates (CTRs) are studied, under both static complete and dynamic incomplete information settings. Subjects consistently bid above the Vikrey-Clarke-Grove’s (VCG) like equilibrium favored in the theoretical literature. However, bidding, at least qualitatively, satisfies the contrasting outcomes predicted under the two contrasting CTRs. For both CTRs, outcomes under the static complete information environment are similar to those in later rounds of the dynamic incomplete information environment. This supports the theoretical literature that uses the static complete information model as an approximation to the dynamic incomplete information under which advertising positions are allocated in field settings. We are grateful to Linxin Ye, Jim Peck, Paul J Healy, Kirby Nielsen, Ritesh Jain for valuable comments. This research has been partially supported by NSF grant SES Foundation, SES- 1630288 and grants from the Department of Economics at The Ohio state University.

Introduction Search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Microsoft sell advertisement slots on their search result pages through auctions, among which the Generalized Second Price (GSP) auction is the most prevalent format. Under GSP auctions, advertisers submit a single per-click bid.

Organizing of Cricket Players Karan Rao, December 2016
Organizing of Cricket Players Karan Rao, December 2016 Overview: The Indian Premier League (IPL) is a T20 cricket league held in India and is the most attended cricket league worldwide. The league ranks sixth amongst all sports leagues in the world and according to global valuation and corporate finance advisor Duff & Phelps, the value of brand IPL stands at around $4.16 billion in 2016.The IPL currently comprises of 8 franchise owned teams that more or less represent the major cities in India and has around 200 players from countries such as: India, South Africa, Australia, West Indies, New Zealand, England, Netherlands, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. All the players are bought by the franchises via an auction. Through this case study we will explore the strategies and the methods used by the franchises to organize their teams, the selection criteria and evaluation techniques used by teams to select their resources and how the dynamic nature of the auction influences the organizing principles used by the franchises. We will also explore how the timing of a resource entering the organizing system effects its monetary value and changes its importance. What is being organized? In the organizing system, which is the IPL, the players are the resources (active/operant resources) that are being organized. As simple and straightforward as it may sound teams spend millions of dollars on scouts, software and data analysts to perfect the art of organizing their resources. This challenge is due to the fact that the team owners, analysts and coaches are trying to extrinsically organize (define a price on) an intrinsically dynamic resource property (a player’s attributes).

Online Auctions and Multichannel Retailing
Online Auctions and Multichannel Retailing Jason Kuruzovich Lally School of Management and Technology Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Troy, NY 12180 Email: [email protected] Hila Etzion Stephen M. Ross School of Business University of Michigan Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1234 Email: [email protected] The Internet enables sellers to offer products through multiple channels simultaneously. In particular, many sellers utilize online auctions in parallel to other online and offline channels. Using an analytical model and data collected from eBay Motors, we study seller behavior and auction outcomes in the context of multichannel retailing. Our analytical model shows that seller characteristics which affect the distribution and volume of offers in the non-auction channels impact the seller’s optimal reserve prices, the probability an auction ends in a sale, the probability an item is sold through the auction channel, and the sale price in case of a sale. The impact on the two probabilities can be negative or positive and depends on whether the seller manages the channels jointly or separately. Our empirical analysis examines how the quality of the seller’s retail location, the functionality of the seller’s website, and the number of non-auction websites on which she lists the product (i.e., seller characteristics influencing demand in non-auction channels) impact the auction channel outcomes. The results confirm the joint channel management strategy considered in the analytical model. Key words: Online auctions, multichannel retailing, electronic commerce, channel management 1. Introduction In many markets that involve unique items—i.e., used cars, used books, real estate, and antiques—sellers often use several selling channels in parallel.
